Ohuhu Brush Markers - 216-Color Double Tipped Alcohol-Based Art Marker Set For Artist Adults Coloring Illustration -Brush & Chisel Dual Tips - Honolulu Series Of Markers - Refillable Ink, Multicolor

These markers are something else! I'm in love. As an amateur marker user, I'd no idea what to expect. I already have the Ohuhu 100 pieces watercolor markers but God, do they streak everywhere, no matter the paper. Still, investing in a steep product like this one was a bit of a gamble since I'm into art only as a hobby. But man, these are GOOOOOD.The set came with all 168 pens intact, colors bright and the packaging immaculate. They also send a transparent sheet to keep under your artwork so the color doesn't bleed onto the next sheet. Some of the markers had their chisel nibs protruding outwards. Nothing a gentle push doesn't fix though. I didn't get the extra nibs like someone in the reviews said they give with this set. Boo hoo. But their website says that the nibs can be taken out and flipped over and you're good to go.My only grouse is that some of the shades are near similar to make any difference at all. The color GY173 and a couple others are so light that when you draw with them, they are mostly invisible and the ink is on the drier side so it feels scratchy while working with those pens. Also, some of the pens slaptter paint, so be careful. Open them away from your artwork.The pens come now with compartments, so that's an improvement on the previous sets, but they don't come organised based on their color chart. I had to take out all of them, swatch them and arrange them in their compartments based on color groups, as you can see in the picture I've attached. It would be helpful if the manufacturer does that. There is streaking especially in the darker colors, but it's minimal, also I believe that is because I don't know yet how to use these markers correctly. They're alcohol markers so they will bleed even though I bought the Ohuhu marker pad to go with the colors, but it still bled through which means you can't use the other side of the paper for any artwork.If you're starting out with alcohol markers, please, please invest in proper marker paper with a heavy GSM because if you don't, these markers will bleed through and streak and you will feel like they don't work. They work only on paper meant for alcohol markers. It's an expensive hobby, but it's worth it when you see the results.All in all, great, great set with nearly all the colors an amateur or ever pros may need. I've never used Copics, Artezas or Poscas to know what's the difference between them and these markers, except that they are EXPENSIVE, and Ohuhu is not so much. Besides I'm doing this for fun, and I'm HAVING FUN with them. So no complaints.So go ahead, even if you're a pro and want to dabble in marker art. This is the right place to start.

These markers are a good dupe for copics. If you are a beginner artist, I would advise to use smaller sets like 48 and then go to the absolute bigger set. Buying the 168 set is not worth if u eventually want to buy the 320 set. Vibrant colours, blend well. And it pairs well with their Marker Sketch book, I have not used any other marker paper other than Ohuhu. U can check out how this brand of markers compare to hundreds around the world by watching Jazzart and Sarah Rene clark.

Blends easily and vibrant

Excellent and value for money

The media could not be loaded. Best colours ever!!!!!!!!!!

Product is good, worth the money packaging was also good, recommended for beginners, ink dries quickly, the only problem is the ink finishes quickly

Awesome

it was great! the pens worked great, they were smooth (but each stroke was visible on paper if you know what i mean..) even though they have awesome blending ability, they bleed a lot and are thus practically unusable on regular paper. altho there are separate papers for them, i feel its wasteful to buy PAPER for an art supply. the colors were soothing and pastel, like i'd hoped, although i wish they'd included a skin color that actually looked skin, not pink or yellow 😭. they dry quickly, so blend fast. the chisel tip was too thick to be of my use, but thats debatable for everyone. the brush tip was good. thats all, hope that helped you chose! have a great day <3
